High School Student & Teacher Outreach

The Department of Biology is actively involved in science outreach at the high school level. The goal of these outreach programs is to make science fun and exciting by bringing new hands-on activities into the classrooms, and to make teaching and learning science a more enriching and rewarding experience for both students and teachers.

Science teachers from the greater Boston area are invited to:

Attend a 5-day summer workshop with lectures on current topics in biology and hands-on laboratory activities.

Apply for a six-week summer research internship in a biology lab at MIT. (Note: we currently do NOT offer research internships for high school students)
